I felt it was time to try something new so I will shift my attention to a two wheel project.
The bike is in good shape but not quite my style. I will be keeping the frame, motor, wheels, and seat but everything else will be custom made by me.
The tear-down begins...
Rebuilt / refinished carbs...
Before:
After:
Working on the stance and tank orientation
Carbs and electrical box (WWII First Aid Kit) mounted
I salvaged an old front fender and made it into a rear fender with custom mounts
A different angle to see the carbs, electrical box, fear fender, and 1919 Ford tail light.
My good friend Killjulez made me these awesome custom covers for the kicker and neutral switch since I will not be using them.
Got some parts back from the powdercoater
Freshly painted new (old) front hub and drilled rotor
Front wheel is almost done, just waiting on custom spokes to be made
New bars and grips mounted
New front wheel is done and ready to slap on (21" Harley barrel with 1978 Canadian Honda hub, custom made spokes, and drilled sport rotor)
Shaved and polished engine parts...
Shaved the tabs and powdercoated the fork lowers
Almost finished...just a few more tweaks
Updated pics...
Just a few more little parts to swap and it's done...
